The Little House Debuts in Boynton

Jul 24th 2012

It may have taken a little longer than expected (everything in the restaurant business does) but former Havana Hideout chef-owner Chrissy Benoit has finally opened her latest venture, The Little House (480 E. Ocean Ave., 561/420-0573) a total rehab of the 1940-vintage Ruth Jones Cottage in downtown Boynton Beach.

With its wood beam ceiling, hardwood floor and original coral rock fireplace, the 75-seat restaurant has a laid-back, homey, inviting feel, one echoed by the menu of diner and wallet-friendly dishes, from main courses like “old school” chicken ‘n’ dumplings and mac ‘n’ cheese of the day to smoked chicken and grape sliders and Indian butter chicken.

But wait, there’s more. Like 20 craft beers on tap, Monday through Friday happy hour (3 to 7 p.m.), and special events from free sunset movies on Mondays to a home brewers brew-off set for sometime in October. Big plans for a little house.
